<h2>Hello <span title="username">user</span>!</h2>

<p> 
Welcome to version 
<b><span title="version">automatically inserted from version.py</span></b> of Crunchy.
</p>

<p>This version is a special release used by Florian Bir&eacute;e for his presentation of
Crunchy at <a href="http://toulibre.org/" title="external_link">Toulibre</a>.
</p>

<p>Much work has been done on Crunchy this summer, including some very useful additions
by Florian during Google's Summer of Code 2008.  Unfortunately, for security reasons, 
we have had to change some of Crunchy's core.  As a result, we have had to do a massive
work of reintegration of all modules, and rewrite a significant part of the documentation.
</p>
<p>This work is not finished ... What you have here is a snapshot of a development
version. <b>Please note that some of the features mentioned in the documentation
do not work as described; this is a temporary situation.</b>
For those that like to play with the latest possible version, note that it
can not (at the time when this was written) be extracted from the trunk of
the svn repository.  It is in the branch "andre".  Once a few more changes are made,
it will become the new trunk.  At that time, we will most likely issue a new release.
</p>

<h3>What is needed to run Crunchy?</h3>
<p>Since you are reading this, chances are that you are already using Crunchy.  
If that is not the case, in addition to Crunchy you will also need:
</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="www.python.org" title="external_link">Python</a>.  
I do mean Guido van Rossum's Python, not Monty Python nor a real life snake.  
Chances are it is already installed on your computer; but you do need a version 
no older than version 2.4. [<small>However, Crunchy is not compatible with Python 3.0.]</li>
<li><a href="firefox.com" title="external_link">Firefox</a>.  
Crunchy may work (at least partially) with some other browsers, 
but it is currently only tested with Firefox. 
Also, for security reasons, we recommend that you
use a Firefox version no older than 2.0.0.5.</li>
</ul>

<h3>New to Crunchy?</h3>
<p>If you are new to Crunchy, we strongly suggest that you first
go through the basic tutorial using the links on the left.</p>

<p>You can use the Crunchy Menu at the top right to come back to this page or 
if you have administrator privileges, to quit Crunchy altogether.</p>
<p>Note that, whenever you see this image: 
<img title="cluetip Except for this one!" rel="/docs/popups/monty1.html" 
src="/images/help.png" style="height:32px;">,
it is because the Crunchy developers (or perhaps some other tutorial writer) have written
some useful tip that you can view by moving your mouse over it [no need to click!].</p>
<p>
Other images, such as <img title="cluetip No information this time. | Please try again later." 
src="/images/stop.png" style="height:32px;"> may also be used in this fashion.
